private message API

Hi there,
I was hoping the API would provide me with a function that is like something like phorum_user_new_private_message_total() or something but I realize, there is nothing there about private message.

Without going into the database directly is it possible, through an API somewhere that I may have missed, to access or manipulate private messages.

Thanks.

Hey,

I tried this too but I was not unable to access my private messages.

I don't think this is possible
